First photos Chris Pine, Kevin Costner in Jack Ryan reboot
Chris Pine will follow his return to the “Star Trek” universe with the lead role in the reboot of the Jack Ryan franchise.
Set for Christmas 2013, Pine stars as Tom Clancy’s CIA analyst who inevitably finds himself forced into dashing field heroics.
In the just released image from Paramount, Pine’s younger, more stylish Ryan speeds through a city on a sporty Ducati motorcycle.
In the new reboot, directed by Kenneth Branagh — who also stars as the villain — and co-starring Keira Knightley and Kevin Costner, Ryan is updated from his Cold War origins to the post 9/11 world.
The story is rumored to still be tied to conflict with the Russians.
